Magazine analysis:
After looking at examples of Q and NME magazine I have found how the use of code and convention helps to create an effective magazine. Each magazine uses house styles of text and colour in order to capture audiences atention and give the magazine a logical flow which fits every page.
I found that NME magazine uses brighter colours in comparision to Q magazine and normally highlights its main storys with a very bright contrasting colour and a large font size.
I will use the codes and conventions that I have learnt after looking at each of the magazines in order to create my own magazine which fits the conventions of a music magazine.
Primary and Secondary Research:
In my primary research my questionnaire alowd me to undersatnd what should be included in my magazine in terms of content. it also alowd me to see what kind of design i should use and what people found more visually appealling at first glance. from my primary reasearch im now able to have a ruff idea of what my magazine should include and an idea of what design to base it on.
In my secondary research I looked at already existing music magazines and how they are adapted to meet the needs of there target market. It also aloud me to view the content thats already availible in some music magazines and helped to develope ideas of how I could expand on them.
Product Placement:
In the product placement stage I looked at what artists should be inclused in my magazine. It also helped me see how these artists are already portrayed in the media and how there image is reflected in a magazine.
From this stage I now no the types of artists that i want to inclused in my magazine and how I shouold portray them in order to reflect the genre of the music magazine.
